Chapter 1209: Pretending to Be a Tiger Eating a Pig!
For Zhao Kaixiong, Zhu Li was more troublesome than Qin Luo. Because Zhu Li could bring him actual losses and harm. Qin Luo —— at most, they can't be friends. He can do extremely limited things to me.
He believed that Qin Luo hit someone for Mi Zian's good, but goodwill can also lead to stupid actions —— in his eyes, Qin Luo's foolishness was beyond redemption. This is also why Zhao Kaixiong was so hostile and wanted to push him out as a scapegoat.
When he heard the secretary report that the director of the Bird's Nest Management Committee came to visit, Zhao Kaixiong simply couldn’t believe his ears.
He was not only surprised that they actually came voluntarily, but also —— this matter had already been guessed by Qin Luo in advance.
"Could this kid really be hiding his true abilities?" Zhao Kaixiong seriously looked at Qin Luo, as if trying to see through his internal organs. Young and handsome, with a likable face. Steady demeanor, calm and composed about what was happening in front of him, with an air of confidence. It seems that he indeed did some work behind the scenes. Moreover, he has a close relationship with Mr. Li, the chairman of Inclining City International...
Zhao Kaixiong was well aware of the fame of Inclining City International. Since its inception, the media and newspapers have never stopped praising it, and the low-profile chairman of Inclining City International frequently appears in print. The astonishing annual profits of Inclining City International are often talked about in many financial magazines. If compared by wealth, Zhao Kaixiong would be far from matching up with Li Qingcheng.
Of course, he still didn't know that most of the shares of Inclining City International were actually in the hands of this young man standing in front of him who he couldn't fully understand.
"Where is the person?" Zhao Kaixiong asked.
"In the corridor waiting," the secretary replied.
"Purple Peace (Zi An), I will go out and see. I will definitely find a way to get justice for you," Zhao Kaixiong smiled and said to Mi Zi'an, then nodded to Qin Luo, Li Qingcheng, and others before quickly walking out.
"President Zhao," Qin Luo reminded again, "If he comes to apologize, it's best if you reject him. Because he isn't qualified."
Zhao Kaixiong looked back at Qin Luo, then left without comment, with the secretary closing the door.
"Qin Luo, how did you know they would come to apologize to President Zhao?" Chen Sixuan asked in surprise. "You guessed this correctly, aren't you too divine?"
"After Zhu Li goes back, he will surely investigate my information," Qin Luo smiled and said. "If he doesn't come to apologize after seeing my information, either he is an idiot, or he is arrogant and conceited - such people don't need to be taken seriously. But he knows, if he comes to apologize to me, it will be hard to resolve this matter. So, they'd better take an indirect route - President Zhao still needs something from him, naturally he dare not offend him too much. They come to apologize actively, where would President Zhao dare to put forward any conditions?"
"They're really getting off easy," Chen Sixuan coldly snorted.
Mi Zi'an was interested in another matter, looking up at Qin Luo and asking, "Do you hope I switch jobs?"
"It depends on your own attitude," Qin Luo smiled and said. "Give President Zhao a chance too. See how he handles this matter. If I make it so clear and he still cannot be firm, such a boss isn't worth following long term. Such a company can't provide a bigger platform and help for your internationalization. As a friend - I suggest you switch jobs."
"That..." Mi Zi'an paused, smiling and asking, "Which company do you want to sell me to?"
---
"President Zhao, hello, hello." Jiao Jinlei saw Zhao Kaixiong coming out from the ward and immediately walked over quickly.
"Director Jiao, hello. Haven't seen each other for a while, right?" Zhao Kaixiong smiled and said. Negotiating the Bird's Nest as the venue for Mi Zi'an's concert was done by Zhao Kaixiong himself, so he was familiar with Jiao Jinlei.
"Yes. President Zhao rarely comes to Yanjing. Today, I must have the opportunity to treat you, let's not stop until we're drunk tonight." Jiao Jinlei wanted to pull Zhao Kaixiong to the dining table, making conversations easier. Words spoken during drinking - do they even count?
"Haha, no can do today," Zhao Kaixiong smiled and said. "Director Jiao, you know, one of our artists broke her leg. If I go out now and eat and drink excessively, and the media captures this, wouldn't people criticize me?"
"Yes, yes. It's due to my lack of consideration." Jiao Jinlei nodded repeatedly and said, "I am here exactly because of this matter. Miss Mi Zi'an held a concert at our place, and all the members of our management committee feel deeply honored. Due to our insufficient work, Miss Mi Zi'an got injured, which makes me feel very guilty. I've come to apologize to President Zhao, and to Miss Mi Zi'an - please forgive us."
Zhao Kaixiong was greatly shocked. Normally, these officials were haughty, their eyes almost growing on top of their heads. Each time he had to give them generous gifts to get them to open one green light - what happened today? Their attitudes were indeed problematic.
However, Zhao Kaixiong still dared not offend Director Jiao. Waving his hand, he said, "Director Jiao, saying so makes us seem distant. We've known each other for quite some time, can we consider ourselves friends? People are not sages, who can be without fault? Doing work always involves some negligence, which is unavoidable - I understand Director Jiao's intentions. Let's end this matter here, alright?"
"Good. President Zhao being so straightforward, I, Old Jiao, cannot be unkind." Jiao Jinlei firmly shook Zhao Kaixiong's big hand and said, "To express our apology to Miss Mi Zi'an, the venue usage fee for this event will be halved - you've already prepaid half, the remaining half will be exempted. Furthermore, if any artist under your company wants to hold a concert here, just a word from President Zhao, and we'll offer a 30% discount."
"Great!" Zhao Kaixiong was extremely excited. This wasn't a small amount of money. More importantly, not only did they not cause trouble for him, but they also took the initiative to compensate him. If Zhao Kaixiong were still unsatisfied, he would certainly be criticized for being ungrateful. It must be said that since the people Zhao Kaixiong usually interacts with are of low level, his vision is also too narrow. He hasn't yet developed the habit of those rich kids demanding exorbitant prices. If he knew that Jiao Jinlei actually intended to waive the venue usage fee for Mi Zi'an's concert entirely and offer a 50% discount for other artists under Leshuo coming to perform at the Bird's Nest, one wonders what he would think.
After sending off Jiao Jinlei, Zhao Kaixiong returned to Mi Zi'an's ward with a joyful expression.
"President Zhao, how did the negotiation go?" Mi Zi'an saw Zhao Kaixiong's expression and knew that Qin Luo had guessed correctly again - they came to apologize.
"An An, Director Jiao Jinlei of the Management Committee apologized for their work negligence." Zhao Kaixiong smiled and said. Due to this good news, his attitude towards Qin Luo changed significantly. Looking at Qin Luo with gratitude, he said, "Mr. Qin is truly a remarkable person. All these matters were predicted by you in advance. Zhao is humbled."
Qin Luo wasn't swayed by his flattery, slightly curling his lips, and looked at Zhao Kaixiong with a smile, "Just an apology?"
Zhao Kaixiong was secretly annoyed but still truthfully answered, "They not only apologized, but also proactively proposed to exempt half of the venue rental fee for Zi'an's concert."
"Is that all?"
"For other artists under the company performing at the Bird's Nest, there will be a 30% discount." Under Qin Luo's pressing questions, Zhao Kaiqiang revealed everything. Such matters couldn't be hidden, so it was better to say it openly.
"The profit margin is quite large." Qin Luo smiled and said, "President Zhao made a little fortune."
"Yes." Zhao Kaixiong hadn't fully understood the meaning behind Qin Luo's words yet. "This time can be considered turning misfortune into blessing, the company benefited significantly. This is all thanks to Zi'an's efforts. I represent the company and her juniors to thank her - in the future, they can also hold concerts at the Bird's Nest."
"But, I have a question I don't understand." Li Qingcheng interjected. She was intelligent and wise, cooperating seamlessly with Qin Luo. When Qin Luo twitched his buttocks, she knew whether he was pooping or peeing. She knew Qin Luo wanted to discipline this President Zhao, but if he said it himself, it would make him appear petty and lacking in magnanimity. Therefore, she took the initiative to speak for him. By her speaking as a woman, it both preserved Qin Luo's face and made Zhao Kaixiong feel even more embarrassed. "They only apologize and offer concessions to you and your company. What about An An? What does the victim An An get?"
"This..." Zhao Kaixiong hadn't expected them to ask this question, hesitating slightly before laughing and saying, "I've already mentioned, An An is a hero of the company, and the company will naturally reward her."
"What about Zhu Li? The Zhu Li who harassed her?" Li Qingcheng pursued further. "Has he gotten away scot-free? Is this matter completely unrelated to him?"
Zhao Kaixiong was furious. How could outsiders keep interfering in his company's affairs again and again?
"According to Miss Li's opinion, how should this matter be handled?"
"Let Zhu Li come over to apologize." Li Qingcheng said.
"That I cannot do." Zhao Kaixiong frankly said.
"I can do it." Qin Luo said. He looked at Yu Jing standing next to Zhao Kaixiong and asked, "Do you have Director Jiao's phone number?"
Yu Jing glanced at Zhao Kaiqiang and remained silent. Of course, she was on Zhao Kaixiong's side.
"I have it too." Mi Zi'an said, handing her phone to Qin Luo.
Qin Luo flipped through it, dialed Jiao Jinlei's number, and said, "Tell your master to come and apologize. Otherwise, this matter won't be over." Always being called pretending to be a pig eating a tiger, this time he decided to pretend to be a tiger and eat Zhu Li, this fat pig.
